New Senfa backlit textiles from Soyang Europe

New from Soyang Europe come two new digitally printable Decoprint substrate collections - Sublimis and Alterra - from French partner Senfa.

Sublimis is a range of lightweight coated woven polyesters for direct and transfer sublimation printing as the name suggests. Available in widths up to 5m it is aimed at those producing backlit graphics and is said to provide excellent light diffusion. Alterra - winner of the recent ‘SGIA Product of the Year award’ - is a backlit fabric woven with 65% recycled fibres. It is said to perform in the same way as Senfa’s Decoprint Pearl, but uses fewer non-renewable resources. “Its green credentials continue with it being PVC-free and suitable for more eco-friendly ink types such as UV and latex,” said Soyang Europe’s sales director Andrew Simmons.
